Hong Kong Island, the Fok family mansion.
In fact, Ho Ying-tung was not surprised at all when he received a call from his son, Ho Chun-ting, in London.
He himself has even been paying attention to the price trends in the international silver futures market.
"Zhen Ting, I can cover your position for 50 million US dollars. But have you really thought it through?"
Huo Yingdong did not reject his son's adventurous behavior outright as he had done in the past, but just confirmed it again.
However, just this one question made Huo Zhenting, who had just gotten angry, completely calm down.
"Wait a minute! Daddy, I...I'll think about it carefully."
Although 50 million US dollars is not a lot of money for the Huo family, they had made a lot of money from soybean futures before!
However, for Ho Chun-ting himself, he began to waver in his own judgment again.
"Okay! Call me when you've made up your mind. I've said that this time, I will always support your own ideas.
But the premise is that it must be your true thoughts, a decision made after rational thinking, not an impulse. "
After hanging up the phone, Huo Yingdong immediately called the mainland.
For him, there is no essential difference between 50 million US dollars and 100 million US dollars.
Giving his son 50 million US dollars to teach him a lesson, and then giving him another 50 million US dollars, maybe he can learn a bigger lesson. For Huo Yingdong, this may not be a bad thing.
However, he is a businessman after all, and he would definitely be unhappy about losing money for no reason.
So, thinking of the futures experts in mainland China, Huo Yingdong naturally made a phone call to the mainland.
…
London, Futures Exchange.
Huo Zhenting paced back and forth in the big room. He was waiting for news. The person he sent out to inquire about the news finally ran back panting.
"Mr. Huo, I found out. The accident at the South African silver mine that was reported earlier was actually just a small landslide. It was cleared on the same day and did not affect production.
Then, the conflict among the silver mine shareholders in South America has also been resolved. One of the shareholders even sold all the silver ingots he had hoarded, seeing that the silver price was so high..."
Brush, brush, brush...
One bad news after another hit us hard.
This immediately extinguished Huo Zhenting's burning ambition to follow through to the end.
"Then... Mr. Huo, should we cover our positions? Or should we sell all the remaining positions?"
The person below asked cautiously.
"Sell it! Stop loss, any recovery is better."
Sitting down on the sofa, Huo Zhenting's face was pale, as if he had aged several years. His once high-spirited and fighting spirit was completely defeated.
A few minutes later, the information after the sale came back: "Mr. Huo, we sold all our stocks, and only got back $8 million in the end."
The people below didn't even dare to breathe, knowing very well how ambitious this Master Huo was. After receiving such a blow, he would definitely be furious.
However……
To their surprise, facing such a huge loss, only 8 million US dollars were left from 50 million US dollars, but Huo Zhenting smiled calmly, waved his hand and said: "Okay! It's all over, thank you for your hard work, book a flight tonight to return to Hong Kong Island! I... I miss home a little bit."
…
Beijing, Haizili.
In a red room, Secretary Xiao Liu saw Professor Li walking towards him with heavy steps. Even he could tell that there might be a problem with Professor Li's futures investment.
Therefore, Xiao Liu was also very tactful and went up to him and said directly with concern: "Professor Li, the leader is on the phone, please wait a moment."
"good!"
Professor Li no longer had the high spirits he had before. Looking at the gate of the red house and then looking up at the blue sky, he suddenly felt that everything seemed so beautiful, yet had nothing to do with him anymore.
…
In the house, the old man received a call from Huo Yingdong and said with a smile:
"Mr. Huo, it seems that we are all the same. We all have such a 'prodigal son' in our family. But this is not necessarily a bad thing!
We only lost some money, but the experience and growth we gained are even more valuable.”
"Yes! Commander, actually when I gave Zhen Ting the 50 million US dollars, I had already anticipated today's situation.
As the saying goes, people cannot teach people, but things can teach people.
He has always blamed me for not giving him the opportunity to be independent, so this time I just let him have all the fun he wants.
I'm sure he will be more stable in the future, I just hope his confidence has not been completely shattered.
This little loss is nothing! When I was young, I invested all my fortune in a ship, and it sank. But I made a comeback, didn’t I? "
Huo Yingdong also smiled with a relaxed look on his face.
"Mr. Huo, you have a very good attitude. No wonder you can do such a good business.
I guess the professors I invested in will also suffer a bad defeat this time!
I also want them to accumulate more experience, not only the experience of making money but also the experience of losing money.
The international capital market is unpredictable. If you blindly go with the flow, you will fall flat on your face sooner or later.”
The old man still said with a smile.
At this time, Huo Yingdong spoke out his intention: "Well, this time we are going to let them gain some experience. However, it would not be good if the money we worked so hard to earn would just go down the drain.
What does our expert think? Regarding silver futures investment, is it still suitable to cover the position now? "
